Oak House Old Weston Road Congresbury BS49 5ED

Refused North Somerset 25/P/1843/TPO Works to TPO

Refused. Only the applicant can appeal, within the statutory time limit, and a revised scheme can be submitted instead.

Proposal

T1 is an English Oak (Quercus robur). We will reduce the crown by approximately 1-2m to manage crown size and maintain a balanced and aesthetically pleasing form and remove deadwood.We will thin the crown by approximately 10-20% to decrease crown density. We will lift the crown to approximately 2.5-3m to create more clearance and create a uniform canopy skirt.
